Fort Lauderdale Charter Bus Rentals from Charter Bus Company Fort Lauderdale

Charter bus rentals in Fort Lauderdale typically cost between $1,200 and $3,500 per day, depending on the size of the vehicle, the duration of the trip, and the time of year. Local trips are often billed by the hour (with a five-hour minimum), while longer journeys are charged by the mile or day. For the most accurate pricing, call our team at 728-221-8780 or use our online quote tool to get an instant estimate tailored to your specific itinerary.

Pricing is based on the type of bus (seating capacity and model), duration of the rental, total mileage, and the season or date of your trip. Additional factors include pick-up/drop-off locations, special amenities requested, and any extra services such as multiple stops or layovers. Peak times like winter/spring break and event weekends may have higher rates. Your quote will reflect all these variables for an all-inclusive upfront cost.

Yes, we require a non-refundable deposit to secure your reservation. The deposit amount is typically a percentage of the total rental cost and must be paid when you sign the contract. This deposit ensures that your bus is reserved for your specified date and time. The remaining balance can be paid in installments, with the full amount due before the start of your trip.

The final payment for your Fort Lauderdale charter bus rental is due before the start of your trip. We’ll provide a specific deadline—usually several days to a week prior to departure—when you book. This ensures all funds are processed and confirmed ahead of your travel date. If booking last-minute, full payment may be required immediately. Our team will clearly communicate your payment schedule and send reminders as the due date approaches.

Yes, your quote will include a standard driver gratuity. However, if you feel your driver provided exceptional service, you’re welcome to offer an additional tip at the end of your trip. Many groups choose to give extra cash directly to the driver as a thank-you for outstanding professionalism, punctuality, and assistance with luggage or special requests. Additional gratuity is always appreciated but never required beyond what’s included in your contract.

We offer a full fleet of vehicles from 15-passenger minibuses to 56-passenger full-size motorcoaches, plus party buses (10–40 passengers) and entertainer coaches (sleep 6–12) for VIP or band tours. Each model comes from top brands like Van Hool, Prevost, MCI, Setra, Grech, Turtle Top, and Executive Coach Builders. Unsure which is best? Call our team—we’ll match you with the perfect vehicle for your group size and trip type.

Our Fort Lauderdale fleet includes buses with free Wi-Fi, individual power outlets or USB ports, flat-screen TVs with DVD/Blu-ray players, Bluetooth sound systems, and PA microphones. Larger buses offer reclining seats with footrests, folding tray tables, personal reading lights, and spacious overhead parcel racks. Most full-size coaches have a clean onboard restroom. You’ll get strong A/C, tinted windows, and optional leather upholstery. Luggage bays handle large items; some buses feature hardwood-style flooring or custom lighting. Ask about coolers, seatback tables, or logo wraps.

It’s best to book your Fort Lauderdale charter bus 6 to 9 months in advance, especially if your trip falls during peak travel seasons like spring break, winter holidays, or major event weekends. Early booking gives you the widest selection of vehicles and the best rates. Last-minute rentals are possible, but availability may be limited and prices can be higher. Large groups and special events should secure transportation as early as possible.

Booking a bus with us is simple! Just call our 24-hour team at 728-221-8780 or use the online quote form with your trip details. We’ll send you a personalized quote in minutes. If you’re happy with the price, you can complete your booking online by signing the contract and paying the deposit. Our team is available 24/7 to answer questions, help with changes, and make sure your rental goes smoothly from start to finish.

Yes, for multi-day trips that require an overnight stay, you are responsible for providing hotel accommodations for the driver. We recommend booking a room at the same hotel as your group or at a nearby budget-friendly option. The hotel should offer parking for the bus and basic amenities for the driver’s comfort. Single-day trips or those returning home each night do not require separate driver lodging.

No, your quote covers the bus, driver, fuel, and standard insurance, but it does not include tolls, parking fees, or entrance charges to certain venues. These additional costs are the responsibility of the renter and should be paid directly during the trip. Common extras in South Florida include highway tolls (e.g., Florida’s Turnpike, I-95 Express), downtown parking, and venue-specific fees at ports or stadiums.

Fort Lauderdale has several options for charter bus parking, but it’s important to plan ahead. Downtown, you can use the Broward County Governmental Center Garage (151 SW 2nd St) or designated street-level lots. Popular destinations like Las Olas Beach Park (3000 E Las Olas Blvd) and the Broward Center for the Performing Arts have specific bus zones—check their websites for details. Port Everglades offers oversized vehicle parking in Lot 18. For airport pickups, follow FLL’s ground transportation signage. Always confirm parking availability with your destination, as rules can change and some areas may require advance reservations or permits. Avoid leaving buses unattended in unauthorized areas to prevent fines or towing.

Fort Lauderdale’s public transit includes Broward County Transit (BCT) buses, the Sun Trolley, Tri-Rail commuter trains, and Brightline rail service. While these options are affordable and useful for individuals, they aren’t ideal for large groups traveling together on a fixed schedule. Public routes may not serve your exact destination, transfers can be inconvenient, and seating isn’t guaranteed. A private charter bus offers door-to-door service, custom scheduling, comfortable seating, and the ability to keep your entire group together. It’s the best choice for group trips, events, and excursions beyond the reach of local transit.

We provide charter bus services to and from all major airports in South Florida, including Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport (FLL), Miami International Airport (MIA), and Palm Beach International Airport (PBI). We also serve smaller regional airports like North Perry Airport (HWO) and Fort Lauderdale Executive Airport (FXE). Whether you need a pickup, drop-off, or multi-leg transfer between airports, we’ll get your group to the terminal on time.
